Mt Ontake (emgoto.com)
Mt Ontake (御嶽山, ontake-san) is one of Japan’s Hundred Famous Mountains on the border of Nagano and Gifu prefectures. At 3067m it is the 14th tallest mountain in Japan. However unlike some of Japan’s other 3000m+ peaks (which are a little more inaccessible), Mt Ontake is doable as a day hike with a total course time of only 5 hours.
